politics

One of the key ways to measure how well a government’s policies are working is by looking at how people feel about the economy and their current living situation.

There are many ways to get a sense of what citizens think, and it’s always interesting how surveys and polls with different questions reveal fascinating insights.

“Consumer sentiment” is one specific measure, and polls in this area have consistently shown how divided society can be. People’s views on the economy and their standard of living are often closely tied to their political preferences.
